Reporting Illegal Content

Beginning February 17, 2024, in accordance with the EU Digital Services Act (“DSA”) , if you are a recipient of the Smartlook service in the European Union and you see content on Smartlook that you believe to be illegal, you can submit a report to Cisco by following the process described here. As defined in the DSA, “illegal content” means “any information that, in itself or in relation to an activity, including the sale of products or the provision of services, is not in compliance with Union law or the law of any Member State which is in compliance with Union law, irrespective of the precise subject matter or nature of that law.” For example, sharing terrorist content, the non-authorized use of copyright-protected material, or the illegal sale of live animals may all be deemed to be illegal content in certain Member States.

To report illegal content, please create a case with Cisco here  by following the steps below.

Step 1:

  • Please enter your email address. (Note that you may be referred to a related site if your email address is already registered with Cisco.com.)
